The Home Depot Center opened today. It seats 27,000, has luxury lounges, locker rooms, 6 training fields, tennis courts, etc. This is big for the sport here in the states. Good thing is Dallas is planning on building an all-soccer facility too by 2005.

WOW!!! :)


VERY COOL!!!

AMAZING....only in AMERICA.

I live just about 20 miles or so away from it(H)

I heard about that Dallas facility too although I was not sure about the date..but man 2005 is super close. It is goina be amazing especially for OH I DUNNO, someone who lives DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS ...Wait a minute, that someone who lives DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS(where the stars are shining) is MOI -> ME !

Where is this stadium? Looks pretty nice... The more soccer specific stadiums the better... follow the English, Dutch and German designs I say.

It's in LA.

It's pretty nice.

now they gotta learn to play the sport (club wise)

Nice looking venue.

A nice size too, not too big so that it is over big and not to small so that you can accomodate a reasonable crowd.

is that the stadium where Mexico is gonna play El Salvador this summer?

This is a huge step forward for US soccer. There are so many benefits of playing the game in a soccer-specific stadiums. Pitch size (notice how much more entertaining the game is on a large pitch?), atmosphere, no American football lines and markings EVER, real grass, etc. And what a tremendous stadium too: looks awesome, just at the right capacity (at least for now), a true state-of-the-art stadium.

This is a great day for US soccer.

nice installements! really nice........

yea it looks great. Home Depot phukin rich ba$tards ;)

beautiful....if only we could do the same in Canada :rolleyes:

wouldnt mind camping in the one of the goal nets... anyone up for it, ill bring the chocolate hobnob biscuits.. :D

pele and beckham were there today for the opening game. :D

This is the second one like that, after crew stadium...this is only the start of things to come hopefully.

I really want one here in Charlotte, the MLS may expand here, i think it'd be great, the more the better.

shinji i saw your mp3 playlist, how comes you've got other Lightning Seeds tunes, but no Lightning Seeds - Three Lions? :D

The Dallas Burn stadium will be built in Frisco, Texas which is where I live and just about 20 minutes away from Dallas. I am probably going to be gone by then, but it will be a nice new stadium in a city that is growing very fast.
